A Horrible Railway Accident.

A railway accident, unexampled in horror,
occurred at midnight, on Wednesday of last
week, on the Toledo, Peoria and Western
Railroad, at Cha;swortb, H. An excursion
train, bound for Niagara Falls, consisting of
Is coaches, carrying nearly thousand pas
sengers, drawn by two locomotives, ran upon
burning bridge. The first engine passed
over safely but the next engine went down
into the ravine which was only ten feet deep
and fifteen feet wide.
Six crowded coaches and three baggage
cars followed with crash after crash one being
piled upon another, and instantly nearly 100
people were killed and so more injured,
many of them shortly afterwards dying OF
